Article Synopsis
  • The trial investigated how hyperthyroidism affects hypercalcemia rates in patients from the Xindu district, analyzing calcium levels and thyroid-related antibodies during vitamin D3 treatment combined with traditional antithyroid medications.
  • A total of 184 hyperthyroid patients were studied, with 36 (19.57%) also having hypercalcemia, revealing increased calcium and thyroid hormone levels and emphasizing the need to consider digestive disturbances even if typical symptoms are missing.
  • Results showed that adding vitamin D3 significantly lowered serum calcium and thyroid hormone levels, normalizing other important markers compared to the antithyroid drug treatment alone.*

Potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) are recognized as promising alternatives for lithium-ion batteries as the next-generation energy storage systems. However, the larger radius of K hinders the K insertion into the conventional carbon electrode and results in sluggish potassiation kinetics and poor cycling stability. Here, nitrogen and fluorine dual doping of soft carbon nanotubes (NFSC) anode are synthesized in one pot, achieving extraordinary electrochemical performance for PIBs.
